Why Yapa Harvest?

Yapa Harvest dials in the business aspects of intensive food production to improve both the vertical farming approach and its delicious end products.

In the coming years, additional advances in indoor farming technology and the development of new plant varieties could radically improve world food production. Yapa Harvest is poised to be at the forefront of the indoor farming market, taking advantage of significant advancements in the field, pursuing a scalable model for the industry and fostering its next generation.

So, while consumers may not think about optimum lighting spectrums, humidity and temperature control, year-round growth, business process improvement and computer applications in relation to those tasty leafy greens they’re munching on, Team Yapa does. Consumers get affordable healthy food that tastes good and is grown locally because we are thinking about the something extra(s), like increased crop yield and competitive production costs.

There are currently no dominant national indoor farming competitors in the U.S. In fact, there are only about 20 commercial indoor farms, with few, if any, providing products in multiple markets. Yapa Harvest will leverage the advantages of multiple indoor farming sites (eventually), the optimal number of indoor plants that can be grown and the best planning and technology tools (like an Integrated Information Technology System).

Another Yapa Harvest difference is our commitment to employing people from the community in which we harvest from. We are also committedto providing opportunities for people with disabilities in an integrated work setting that meets Federal guidelines.

And we’re interested in brand and market awareness, so we will implement a multi-year campaign that establishes a brand that associates its food with healthy eating, local growth, and good taste. Consumers are increasingly interested in the quality, sustainability and environmental impacts of their food, making it natural for them to want to learn more about indoor farming, eventually championing it or at least seeking its superior bounty.
